What is the Delta Tunnels Project?

Take a Stand Against the Delta Tunnels Project

The Delta Tunnels Project, if built, would be one of the most expensive and ill-planned projects in the country. It would consist of two 40-foot wide tunnels, placed 150 feet underground, running 35-miles within the Sacramento-San Joaquin Bay Delta. The tunnels would divert water from the Sacramento River to water users south of the Delta. The price tag for this project will be up to $60 billion.

The study for the Delta Tunnels has yet to answer some basic questions;

Who will bear the real costs of this project, repairing the environmental damage, paying for the destruction of family farms, as well as the massive cost of construction?

This project specifically limits water deliveries to no more than users presently receive, yet water users will pay much more for what they do get.

Why isn’t the State Legislature involved in this decision? Why won’t they speak up for us taxpayers? Have they deliberately let themselves be cut out of the decision process on an unpopular and expensive project?

The Delta Tunnels are not the answer to California’s water problems. These questions deserve answers.

This is a hugely expensive project which will affect everyone in the state and is currently being carried out entirely by executive order of the Governor and the state agencies.

As taxpayers, we are concerned about the recently passed Water Bond. We were told it would not use bond money to pay for the project. Why is ‘California WaterFix’ now planning on using the Water Bond money for its related restoration work?

Your action today will let our elected leaders know that California’s water and future matter to us!

Don’t pay more for less. Tell your legislator to get involved in California’s future and the Delta Tunnels Project.
